﴿ فَلَمَّا جَآءَ أَمْرُنَا جَعَلْنَا عَٰلِيَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهَا حِجَارَةًۭ مِّن سِجِّيلٍۢ مَّنضُودٍۢ ﴾

“And so, when Our judgment came to pass, We turned those [sinful towns] upside down, and rained down upon them stone-hard blows of chastisement pre-ordained. one upon another,”

So when Our command for their destruction came to pass We made their uppermost that is their cities the nethermost — when Gabriel raised them to the sky and dropped them upside down to the earth and We rained upon them stones of baked clay clay baked in fire one after another
